G0513X2BF 17" 2 HP Extreme Series® Bandsaw with Cast-Iron Trunnion & Foot Brake
Awarded Top Value by WOOD Magazine.
The awarding winning Grizzly G0513X2BF 17" 2 HP Bandsaw with Cast-Iron Trunnion & Foot Brake Micro-Switch was recognized because of its combination of features including both an automatic brake that stops the blade in less than two seconds at shutdown and a foot brake for emergencies.
The magnetic power switch prevents accidental restarts after an emergency stop or loss of power and the keyed lockout adds another level of safety.
The 2 HP motor powers through wood at a maximum 12" cutting capacity and the 16-1/4" throat is big enough for most applications.
The G0513X2BF has an extra-wide 23-5/8" x 17-1/4" cast-iron table that can tilt from 5° left to 45° right. The cast-iron fence includes a 6" tall extruded-aluminum resaw fence that attaches quickly and supports tall stock exceptionally well. The cast-iron table trunnions add additional weight for greater stability.
Additional features include a heavy-duty miter gauge, dual 4" dust ports to suck up all the sawdust, micro-adjusting geared table and double ball-bearing blade guides that are usually found on machines costing much more.
This 17" 2HP Extreme Series® Bandsaw is covered by a 1-year warranty covering parts and factory defects. (Consumables such as blades are not included.) Support for this machine is US based and replacement parts are available on-line for shipment from our warehouse in Springfield, MO.
